Add a parameter to add_partial instead of having separate functions. The parameter allows a more detailed control of where the slab pages is placed in the partial queues. If we put slabs back to the front then they are likely immediately used for allocations. If they are put at the end then we can maximize the time that the partial slabs spent without being subject to allocations. When deactivating slab we can put the slabs that had remote objects freed (we can see that because objects were put on the freelist that requires locks) to them at the end of the list so that the cachelines of remote processors can cool down. Slabs that had objects from the local cpu freed to them (objects exist in the lockless freelist) are put in the front of the list to be reused ASAP in order to exploit the cache hot state of the local cpu. Patch seems to slightly improve tbench speed (1-2%). Signed-off-by:

The NUMA defrag works by allocating objects from partial slabs on remote nodes. Rename it to remote_node_defrag_ratio to be clear about this. Signed-off-by:

If CONFIG_SYSFS is set then free the kmem_cache structure when sysfs tells us its okay. Otherwise there is the danger (as pointed out by Al Viro) that sysfs thinks the kobject still exists after kmem_cache_destroy() removed it. Signed-off-by:

Drivers that register a ->fault handler, but do not range-check the offset argument, must set VM_DONTEXPAND in the vm_flags in order to prevent an expanding mremap from overflowing the resource. I've audited the tree and attempted to fix these problems (usually by adding VM_DONTEXPAND where it is not obvious). Signed-off-by:

An Athlon 64 X2 test system showed hard hangs shortly after marking the kernel text read-only, if we tried to preserve largepages and changed the PSE entry from RW to RO. The pagetable code itself is correct, it's the CPU that locked up hard (and not even the NMI watchdog could punch through that hard hang). So be conservative and always do splitups - like we did in the past. Signed-off-by: -
